Comment: | The only reference Farrington (2012), no. 1.70 gives for this man is Bousquet, J. (1992), 'Inscriptions de Delphes', in: BCH 116, 177-196 (esp.158-166). I have not seen this article, so I rely on Farrington for all information in this entry. Archon was supposedly a Macedonian charioteer, having won an Isthmian and a Pythian victory, before being entrusted with 'the passage of Alexander's fleet down the Hydaspes' in 326 B.C. (Farrington (2012), p. 123 note 297). - PK |
